I&#039;m going to break this down by offense and defense with a far heavier focus on starters and top back-ups. Offense: Kirk Cousins: -Cousins started out well completing his first two passes (though one was off target) for 19 yards.

RB Roy Helu Jr.: -While Helu&#039;s spot is basically locked, it will be good to see him get some work. Last preseason and early season before going on IR he was banged up and not effective.

Last year the Redskins offensive line benefited by it&#039;s starters making 79 out of a possible 80 starts. While a few other snaps were missed here or there, the Redskins were about as healthy as you could expect from an offensive line. While their line as a whole wasn&#039;t top tier, and maybe n2013-08-05 11:37:087/23: Fanspeak.com Redskins- 5 Training Camp Questions: Offensehttp://fanspeak.com/washingtonredskins/2013/07/23/5-training-camp-questions-offense/

The Redskins last season had a near perfect attendance record among their offensive linemen, as collectively they missed just a single start. Given the health of the offensive line last season and the fact that all 5 starters are returning the Redskins may decide, that they don&#039;t need to keep t2013-07-13 04:36:566/26: Fanspeak.com Redskins- Playing for a Job: Offensehttp://fanspeak.com/washingtonredskins/2013/06/26/playing-for-a-job-offense/

Every year there are players who exceed expectations, while others fall well short.
